It's not available anywhere in the US. I don't know if it's available on video in the UK. Can any of our UK friends clear that up for me? Of course, UK video is a different format than Merkin video, so you'd have to either get a VCR that will play both formats, or shell out a fair sum to have it converted from the UK format to our format. The last that I'd heard, there are no plans to air this stateside. {To add some Tori content:} At the end of the series, he did an interview, and he talks about having written the fourth episode at Tori's London home. Since that house was built over a river, there's quite a lot of water in that episode. I personally thought that there were some rather Tori-esque touches in that episode as well, but that's just MHO. :) /nad *************************************************************************** * Nadyne Mielke, CS majour, Southern Tech, Marietta, GA * * * * "I regret to say that we of the FBI are powerless to act in cases of * * oral-genital intimacy, unless it has in some way obstructed interstate * * commerce.

Be aware that video tape, especially tape a couple years old, can't take much more than two or three generations. Especially if you copy from an LP video format, it loses quality due to generation degredation very quickly. So if you copy from someone's tape (possibly/probably a generation or two old itself), onto another tape set at LP, the quality coming off the LP onto any NEW copies might suck.

There are actually two singles of this, both imports. {One has a blue cover, one has a grey cover.} Each single has different remixes of this song. If you don't want five billion remixes of it, and just want to hear it, it's also available on BT's double album IMA {which my local Best Buy has for $13.99} and on the soundtrack to -I think- "Party of Five". {I may be wrong on the soundtrack, can anyone back me up or refute me?} The singles should be available from any local CD store that orders import singles {Border's does, for example, as does Best Buy and Circuit City}, and will probably cost around $10 -- I got my copies for $7.99 each at Tower Records. The double album should be available anywhere, and as an added bonus, it's a US release, so you can order it from any store in the US. The "Party of Five" soundtrack is probably the easiest way for you to get this song. Regardless, this is -not- a bootleg. > -Spew U. Atlantic Records CMJ survival kit.

It was only released as a special tour edition in Australia/New Zealand. You - -may- be able to find it at: http://www.abcds.com http://www.cdconnection.com http://www.cdnow.com These places have had it in the past, but I can't speak for their current stock. In addition, I can't speak for their service, since I've never done business with them. Since More Pink is an import {and a real import, not a bootleg}, I have to say that I highly doubt that you're going to stumble across it in a used CD store {unless you happen to live in Australia}. I would say that only a true Torifan would pick it up, and they probably had to search for it to find it. It will probably cost you around $30-$50 new to get it, and folks usually don't plunk down that kind of money unless they truly plan to keep it. :) /nad *************************************************************************** * Nadyne Mielke, CS majour, Southern Tech, Marietta, GA * * * * "I regret to say that we of the FBI are powerless to act in cases of * * oral-genital intimacy, unless it has in some way obstructed interstate * * commerce.
